He-Man Master's the Universe. How many times have you already seen this movie? A couple dozen times, I guess. Because you've made fun of it in the past?
Starting point is 00:09:53 We have made fun of it in the past. This is, you were talking about anniversaries before. This is going to be our 25th anniversary of rifting movies in Austin at the Alamo Draft House. Wow. You and your goddamn Biggs numbers is bigger than my numbers. Thanks a lot. You show off. What else would you like to promote?
Starting point is 00:10:12 We riff episodes of murder she wrote every Thursday on the Twitch stream at 9 p.m. Central. So tune in every Thursday, 9 p.m. Central. All right, and you don't have to lean in so much like you're talking to a tiny person. I can reach where your mouth is. John Irler, everybody. We're going to be doing the... Also, a pancake friend of mine. He's also a master pankaker, but he moved to Boston, and it's so exciting to have him here with us now, everybody.
Starting point is 00:10:50 Give it up for Owen Edgerton. Hi, everybody. Hi, Doug. Hi, he's the host of the fantastic debates, the fighting one I was talking about earlier. And how do you describe that experience? The whole thing? You're like the ringmaster. of these people, they put
Starting point is 00:11:14 podiums in a boxing ring and then people fight and then people take the podiums out. I get exhausted just watching all the podium movement and then, but then they box each other and then the audience screams and yells until somebody decides who the winner is.
Starting point is 00:11:29 But you host this madness like almost every year and what's it like from your perspective? It's really sweaty. It's like it's a good sweaty rave and kind of sexual. Yeah, and you've got a full, full ass tux on the whole time too, so you're really sweating. Yeah, and I'm wearing like tweed underneath that so I can really just soak it all up.
Starting point is 00:11:52 Like it's like tweed, tweed, tweed, turtleneck tucks is my thing. It's all, you know, all the great lebracons. I can't. I can't. We interrupted so many, we mocked. so many leprechaun movies together over the years and then you guys always do like a fun sketch so you would always get designated the lepricon so i really i'm not going to say that word one more time because i don't want an actual one to appear but uh but i'm sorry that i associate you
Starting point is 00:12:29 with that it's you're not alone it's unfortunately you know what also if you just i wouldn't think of you as the lepracon so much if you just leave the goddamn pot of gold at home just one time Just so you don't have to bring it with you everywhere you go Oh and Edgerton everybody Are you gonna ask you my plug? Oh yeah what's your plug? Yeah so So we also have
Starting point is 00:12:51 It's just a fun you know That's a fun gag to do that to something Yeah I just I wrote a movie that's playing It's a closing night movie A Fantastic Fest so Come see Whistle And if you are just listening out there
Starting point is 00:13:04 Then when it's out in theaters Go See Whistle It's a I'm guessing it's a workplace comedy. Yeah, it's kind of a workplace. It's kind of a musical. Because you whistle while you work. Also joining us.
Starting point is 00:13:21 This man might have told you where to stand or where to go today because he runs this ship. He runs a tight ship, such a tight ship that if anything happens in the next hour, he's busy and can't help because he's part of the show today. He is a guest of the show. Give it up for Will Chester, everybody. Hey, how you doing? It's good to have you. First time this has happened. Yeah, it's great.
Starting point is 00:13:46 It's very exciting. What are you looking forward to most about this year's Fantastic Fest? Oh, the off-site events, like debates. Closing night parties are going to be amazing and it's a secret, so I'm not going to go further than that. Why are you so into off-site events? Because then you don't have to do anything because it's not, you're in charge here? Yeah, exactly. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 00:14:07 Anything off-site you want to be there? Yeah, yeah. So I can enjoy. it, yeah. That's fair. That's fair. That's so Terry's down there in the other end saying that's his job. You guys can find it out for that role. What do you want to plug? Owen Edgerton's books, Master Pancakes movies, T-pins with a Z because he couldn't get the S, the social media back there for Doug, Doug loves movies, Doug interruption, just everything that's going on,
Starting point is 00:14:40 everything that everyone's doing here. I love it. Wow. Wilchester, everybody. Finally, a legitimate person that works in film. An actress you may have saw, I'm not, you know,
Starting point is 00:15:01 I'm not a big spoiler person, but she gets her head crushed. In Final Destination, six yeah no there's no number it's final destination colon bloodlines
Starting point is 00:15:15 there's no colon even it just goes right into bloodlines destination six bloodlines or no final destination bloodlines yeah might just be a dash whatever it is she's in it for a period of time
Starting point is 00:15:34 until her death it's Anna Laura everybody A guest on this very show last year In the Highball You went up against Joseph Kahn And Chris Cubis, I believe And I managed to convince you to come back for this today So that makes this our one-year friend anniversary
Starting point is 00:15:54 Yeah, that's true We did meet on that day And what do you want to plug? Aren't you going to ask me what I was looking forward to Because I had to... Oh yeah, I know you've got to hear everybody else ask that question and give their lame answers, but you've got one prepared and ready to go, so let's hear it. First I say that I went to the bathroom and came back while you were doing intros, and can you imagine if you had 20 people?
Starting point is 00:16:18 This would be like two hours. No, it really, it does take forever, and that's kind of part of the joke of the show is that it's more introductions than show. And I hope everybody's enjoying that joke. All right. What are you looking forward to? I'm looking forward to watching you climb back up into that tall chair. It is a cute chair where my feet dangle. Yeah, just kicking away over there.
Starting point is 00:16:46 And I can't wait to get into it. But that's going to be a little later in the show. Because we are going to eliminate most of you until that's why we have three luxurious chairs. Is your reward if you last in this game as you get to sit in those chairs. and play the final game and possibly win the prizes in the bag, which I will reveal in a moment. But are we done, Anna? Well, sometimes I make T-shirts in my bedroom,
Starting point is 00:17:18 and I don't have them online for sale yet, but that's what I'd like to plug. Okay. So keep an eye out for a thing that might happen someday involving shirts. And do you want to tell me? us who the next competitor is? Oh, this is you want me to intro him? I do.
Starting point is 00:17:39 I do, because I met him last year, but we've never, he's never participated in the show before. And I don't think his name's difficult to pronounce, but I do think it would be fun if you told everybody who he was. So this is my boyfriend, Ryan Nemeth. He's a pro
Starting point is 00:17:55 wrestler at TNA wrestling. He also writes horror movies. He's a really good writer. He has a master's in English. A lot of people don't know that about him. They just think he's a meathead. He also paints dogs. I don't paint
Starting point is 00:18:13 a dog. Pictures on. All right. I'll get to you in a second, Ryan. We're trying to introduce you right now. You can't. It's rude to interrupt. But I would have said all of those exact same things about Ryan Nemeth, everybody. Hey, dude. Hey, man. How's it going?
Starting point is 00:18:28 It's going good. So Anna tells me that you are a movie trivia person. You like it. I like to watch movies, you know? So you figure that, you extrapolate that to you must know the trivia if you watch a lot of movies. It's a simple math equation and I believe in it, yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:44 You don't go out to like pub quizzes or anything like that? I lurk in the background. And when you're like working out at the gym, do you tell everybody else how dumb they are because they don't, they don't... People the gym don't know movies. That's all I do with the gym. I don't work out. I just tell everyone how dumb they are, yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:00 and what do you want to promote oh i want to promote uh if this uh if anyone's listening in new england tn a huge wrestling show there october 12th bound for glory i'm in a giant match it's going to be the biggest show in the history of tn a so come out i love that i love that's a that's a good plug because this isn't coming out for a second that's not till october oh oh and uh anna may at some point make a shirt that'll be for sale i guess all right yeah so everybody i i i have I got to admit I had forgotten about it already, so thank you for the reminder. I had really moved on because it's just so much to get into today. And finally, this is a gentleman who I met because I got to do a out in California.
Starting point is 00:19:48 I moderated a screening of a film that he co-directed. And then he came on Douglas movies during South Byett Creek in the Cave and walked away a winner. So we have a returning champion to this show, everybody. It's Carl Frye, co-director of rats, exclamation point. And Maxwell, his co-director, just did the show a few days ago last week in New York, and he was the winner there. You guys are just a couple of winners.
Starting point is 00:20:25 How does that feel, Carl? It's really incredible, it's an honor. I'm just always honored and excited to know somebody named Carl because I like to say your name like Sheriff Rick says it on Walking Dead. Carl! All right, so Carl, I already did your plug, I think, that you co-directed rats. Oh, and you have a copy for the prize bag?
Starting point is 00:20:51 Yeah, should I display it right here? Yeah, let's see it. Whoever wins. is getting a copy of rats on the good old, this is a DVD or a Blu-ray? Blue-ray. But then also the catch, we gotta say the tagline for rats is so fantastic,
Starting point is 00:21:12 it bears repeating. What? Oh, I, okay. I lost my virginity watching rats. Dot, dot, dot, did you? That's an amazing. tagline and yeah I'll put that in the prize bag these are our guests everybody we're Carl Fry and everybody else thank you for lining up today and putting
Starting point is 00:21:43 yourself through all this to potentially win the contents of this bag it is a limited edition Douglas movies tote yeah and inside that tote is a cookie they gave me at the hotel it's got raisins in it so I don't I don't have any need for that I've got a rubber pipe from my friends at Peacemaker it's only been used once
Starting point is 00:22:10 Terry T-pins with a Z contributed some amazing Fantastic Fest pinnery and his card is in there too if you need more and I brought a Doug Benson and a Douglas
Starting point is 00:22:27 Movies pin but the best thing of all that one of you is going to win. But I love that Carl can win back his own movie and Terry can win back his pins. But this is the best thing. This is mill and fill, and it is a machine that makes, like, you can make a, you know, a cone of marijuana.
Starting point is 00:22:50 It'll, like, load one of those up in under 60 seconds. If you're in a rush to suddenly have a a loaded cone, you know, like, not a one-hitter, but you know what I mean, it's a pre-roll. They call them pre-rolls. All right, so all that's going to be won by one of y'all, and we're going to find out which one of you
Starting point is 00:23:18 after these messages. We'll be right back. We're back. Yay! Oh my goodness. We're going to eliminate my guests right now, one by one, in a fairly rapid, hopefully not too fast. Now we're doing all right on time, I think. With a game that I call, that's fantastic!
Starting point is 00:23:50 Really, that's only called that just because I couldn't really think of a name for this game. game. Terry, you're going to be first. I'm going to name a motion picture that really exists, an actual motion picture, and I'm going to then name two actors. And then I'm going to ask you to tell me which one of those actors is in the movie, or your third option is neither. real movie two actors which one is it or neither if you miss then we go to Doug Mellard and he's got a 50-50 should make it easier maybe we'll see but if Terry misses he's eliminated he goes back to a seat does another bong rip then we move on to Doug Miller and if you you got a 50-50 but if you miss
Starting point is 00:24:54 then Chris Telles gets the gimme point because there's only one thing left so you'll still be in and then we'll move on to John will start the next one etc we'll play this until there's only three of you left and then you'll sit you down in those chairs and I'll tell you what'll happen next after that all righty Terry the movie is the ghost in the invisible bikini. Who is in that movie? Is it Norman Fell, Don Nott's, or neither? Don Nott's. Is incorrect, Terry. Please have a seat.
Starting point is 00:25:44 Don't forget about T-Pins, everybody. Thank you for moving your beverage off of my table. do you remember the remaining choices Doug Norman Fell or neither yeah which one you want to go with I'll go Norman Fell that is incorrect
Starting point is 00:26:04 please take a seat congratulations Chris Tellis is still in it everybody good job Chris all right John I yeah the wrong seat Doug go sit in the proper spot all right

Starting point is 00:26:38 or neither I'm gonna I'm gonna go I'm gonna go with neither neither is correct you got it right nicely done John you get a stay
Starting point is 00:26:53 and you've got to help me drag this out for a little bit longer. All right. Owen, don't be nervous. He's got one in three chance here getting this right, even if you don't know. But some of these are so obvious. Like, you know the movie, the man who reclaimed his head? You're familiar, right? The man who reclaimed his head.
Starting point is 00:27:20 Who's in that one, is it? Basil Rathbone or Claude Rains or neither I'm going to have to say neither? You're going neither for the man who reclaimed his head when the choices are Basil Rathbone
Starting point is 00:27:39 Claude Rains or neither? You're going to say neither. I think I'm going to say neither. Have a seat on. Thank you so much for being here. Welcome back from Boston. You did the right thing by leaving. Sorry, man. This is so brutal.
Starting point is 00:28:04 Hi, Wilchester. You heard what just happened. Now you have a 50-50. Is it Basil or Claude? The Basil. That's incorrect. Get back to work. Thank you so much for participating.
Starting point is 00:28:25 Will Chester's going to go make sure the other screenings are going off as planned. The whole rest of the place has probably been in shambles without him. Thank you, dude. Bye. He really did leave.
Starting point is 00:28:44 All right, Ann, are you ready? Yeah, I actually don't remember what he said. Oh. What he just said Oh, great, but there was, she gets the gimmie. Yeah, so you don't have to be ready for anything. You're still in.
Starting point is 00:28:59 Yeah. It's your boyfriend that's in trouble. Hey, he instantly knew who Basil Rathbone was, so I think he's probably okay. Yeah, might be pronounced Basil. Yeah, that's what I figured. I figured when I was butchering it over there, but I didn't have to correct myself. Are you ready? the more ready than I've ever been for anything ever ever all right here we go
Starting point is 00:29:27 the movie is confessions of an opium eater yes that's that is pretty funny laughing at people who have opium eating problems who's in confessions of an opium eater is it Vincent Price Bella Legosi or neither Vincent Price That is correct. Vincent Price is in confessions of an opium eater. I do not know if he plays the titular character. Carl over here in the shadows.
Starting point is 00:30:02 Carl! All right. Carl. Are you ready? I'm ready. Okay. Shoot loud, louder. I don't understand.
Starting point is 00:30:21 That's the name of a movie. Shoot loud, louder, I don't understand. Does that movie have Gina Lola Brigida, Rakel Welch, or neither? Raquel Welch? That is correct. Raquel Welch is it. Shoot loud, louder, dot, dot, dot, dot.
Starting point is 00:30:40 The rest of it. That's what it was before above bloodlines. What's that? It's Final Destination. Dot, dot, dot, dot. Is it really? I don't think so. Okay, so
Starting point is 00:30:54 Got it narrow down to five little girls and boys Let's continue To knock people out We just need to lose two more people, Chris You got plans this afternoon? Nope, this is all I have planned All right, well I hope you continue I hope you stand
Starting point is 00:31:12 I hope you stay standing The movie is called The Wind cannot read. The wind cannot read is a real movie. Does it have James Mason, Fred McMurray, or neither?
Starting point is 00:31:33 How many go with could you say the names again? I sure can. They're right here in front of me. James Mason or Fred McMurray or neither. I might go with neither. I'm going to go with neither. Nice pick.
Starting point is 00:31:49 neither one of those gentlemen is in the wind cannot read very well done there buddy hello John Erler the movie is disco godfather disco godfather does it have Gary Busey Forrest Whitaker or neither I'm gonna say Forrest Whitaker I'm sorry John that is incorrect but great gas thanks for coming down are you going to have a seat or you're going to storm out
Starting point is 00:32:28 what if I just stood up here it'll be confusing for me when I come back around okay he's just going to stay right there all right okay there he goes okay so he said Forrest Whitaker and is it Gary Busey or neither that's in Disco
Starting point is 00:32:49 Godfather. I'm going to say Gary Busey. I'm sorry. It's neither. You're out, but your boyfriend is still alive. And that brings us down to three players. These are our final three players, ladies and gentlemen. Chris Tell us, Ryan Demeth, and Carl Fry. Who would have thought that it would end up like this? I know I wouldn't have. But here we are. And we all need to take a breath and just think about what's happened and we're going to finish this thing off right after these messages. We'll be right back.
Starting point is 00:33:28 We're back. Well, that was another really fun commercial break. People really let their hair down and go crazy during the breaks. Doug loves movies. But now after those vicious
Starting point is 00:33:46 eliminations that just took place and vicious screens tonight that premieres tonight here at the festival. Vicious, no exclamation point, just the word vicious. So
Starting point is 00:34:02 this game we're going to play now to determine our winner for today is called the little search engine that cut! Boopoo! In this game, I typed a word, a word that I think is sort of like a word that fits for this festival.
Starting point is 00:34:27 I typed that word into the search engine on IMDB, and then I wrote down the top 10 movies that have that word in the title, and this is, you know, according to the current today's IMDB algorithm. So you'll take turns naming movies with this. word in the title, you'll each get three guesses total, but we'll go in turn. So we'll start with Ryan, he'll guess one, and I'll tell you how many points you get. If any, if you get the number one movie, it's 10 points, number 10 movies, one point, and then there's a bunch of points in between. Anything after 10 is also not worth any points. Make sense, Ryan? Yes. Just checking
Starting point is 00:35:17 with Ryan because it's his first time on the show. Carl won a variation of this game the last time he was on, so he should be pretty familiar. And Chris, I just don't worry about Chris. You know what I mean? He takes care of himself.
Starting point is 00:35:36 I somehow always went at this. I'm just prepping you guys. I don't even know what's going on. I have never lost at this one. Oh. I'm currently undefeited. Right.
Starting point is 00:35:47 You do have a really great record at this point, as does Carl. Carl's one and one. So, yeah, it's going to be interesting to see how this turns out. And like I said, I picked a word that I think applies to the kinds of films that they play at Fantastic Fest. And so the word is dark. And that, of course, is a word that's been in many, many, many, film titles, but Ryan, you get first guess what movie do you think is number one with the word dark in it? The Dark Night. That Batman
Starting point is 00:36:32 movie? Yes. Number one on the list. Picked it right off. That's worth 10 points for Ryan. That is a strong start. But, But still anybody, anybody could win this that isn't named Ryan.
Starting point is 00:36:56 But we'll see, Carl. I think there was a horror movie called The Darkness. Does that count? It would count, and you could make that your guess, if you'd like to. Oh, extremely ominous. Yeah, I'll go with that. You go with the darkness? Not on the list.
Starting point is 00:37:25 I'm sorry. I'm terribly sorry. Carl starts off with zero. Chris, he's rubbing the beard. Always a sign that a man is thinking. I guess, hey, I feel like this might not even be a movie. Oh, that's a fun, that's a real fun way to play this. Just say some words.
Starting point is 00:37:51 I can't think of any movies with the word dark it is. Really? Man, right now I can't. No, I know. There's a lot of pressure. I feel like it's like a... But when you hear some more titles, maybe something will come to you. So far, we've said the dark night and the darkness.
Starting point is 00:38:09 I'm going to... Take a stab at it. This is exciting. I think there was a movie once called Dark House. It's a movie, right? There's a movie called
Starting point is 00:38:21 Dark House? Did I say House? I think you did say Dark House. And it's number seven on the list. What the fuck just happened? Yeah. I think I skipped to buy it on the Netflix menu once.
Starting point is 00:38:37 Oh, my goodness. Yeah, that was one I thought there's nobody's going to come up with this one. It was like from 2014 it stars Carrie Russell or something. And yeah, it's for some reason people were always win this. People were looking
Starting point is 00:38:53 it up and yeah, you got, well you have four points for getting that movie that was number seven on the list. All right. So we go back to Ryan who really got off to such a strong start with his first guest.
Starting point is 00:39:11 What's your second guess, Ryan? I'm kind of hoping this TV series made a movie, Tales from the Dark Side. Oh, well, they did make a movie, and so it does qualify as an appropriate answer, because the word dark is in there. But it keeps this game more exciting that it is not on the list. 10 points is still a great, great lead, but these other guys have a lot more opportunity now to catch up. Carl, did you think of another dark movie? I did not see it, but wasn't there a movie called Dark Matter?
Starting point is 00:39:57 That is on the top 10? Dark Matter? Hmm. I'm afraid I'm not seeing it on the list or in my memory as something that exists. Yeah, no, it's, I'm sure there's something called that, you know, but I can't think of a...
Starting point is 00:40:24 It's a big kind of TV show, right? Yeah, something like that. Yeah. I had contestants in the past try to convince me, you know, that a movie exists when it doesn't, But in this case, even if it does exist, it did not make the list. So we go back to Chris. This is a real interesting position that Chris is in,
Starting point is 00:40:49 because now it sounds like he's going to have to make up another title in hopes that it will work out. Yeah. I just think, like, if I was going to name a movie with the word dark in it, right? There's not that many. You said tales from the dark side already, right? Yeah. That wasn't on there.
Starting point is 00:41:05 I think there's a Is there a movie called Dark Hour out there? I mean, sure, sounds like... I'm not going to lock it in juicy. Yeah, I'll lock it in. You're locking in The Dark Hour? Yeah. Or just Dark Hour?
Starting point is 00:41:27 Dark Hour. You're going just straight up Dark Hour. Because you know I like an exact title. They do. It really excites me. If there is a the dark hour, you would let me know, though, right? I don't know how I could indicate you without it coming off like some sort of cheating is going on. But let's lock in for you the dark hour or just dark hour.
Starting point is 00:41:54 I'll let you have both. Yeah, let's do. Because neither of them are on the list. Neither of them made the cut. That's dark. Yeah. This is still anybody's game except for Carl. I finally remembered one.
Starting point is 00:42:16 But you could have some, yeah, well, we'll have some fun with that when we get to you, but Ryan gets his third guest now. And this one could solidify the win for Ryan. I guess again, I'm hoping something else has been made into a movie, in this case, an album, Dark Side of the Moon? I didn't mean to like laugh I didn't mean to air laugh into my microphone it was warranted
Starting point is 00:42:44 it was creative I was laughing at the creativity of it because yeah there's probably been you know but it's probably like a maybe like a concert movie or something with more words in the title than that but it did if it exists it didn't make the
Starting point is 00:43:01 the list so this is really exciting. Because now Carl is going to say the one that came to him. It might be a bit of a, might hurt Chris's
Starting point is 00:43:15 chances of winning this thing. But no matter who wins today, I just want to say I'm proud of all three of you guys. What's your guess, Carl? Wasn't the bin Laden one called Zero Dark 30?
Starting point is 00:43:31 That was the name of the bin Laden one. which is more most of us just call it the bin Laden one because you know a lot of us aren't good at telling time and a lot of us aren't aware of when it is actually
Starting point is 00:43:48 zero dark 30 and that is number eight on the list Carl the last minute putting some points on the board walking away with some dignity zero
Starting point is 00:44:04 dark dignity but Chris did any of any of the things that happened since your last turn inspire you to do you want to hear all the titles we've said so far
Starting point is 00:44:19 will that help at all? Yeah I think I do okay I'm going to tell you Dark House of course was your pull Zero Dark 30 is Carl's and
Starting point is 00:44:33 Ryan said, and that's why he's in the lead right now, he said the words, the dark night. What's your next guest and final chance to take this thing?
Starting point is 00:44:50 Again, I don't know if this movie exists yet. But if it doesn't, I think it should. Because I think we've all gone through some dark times. or dark house two or whatever
Starting point is 00:45:09 that would probably be called dark house two colon dark times back in the dark yeah darking it up again dark times at Ridgemont High
Starting point is 00:45:22 yeah turn on the dark that was the Spider-Man musical was Spider-Man the musical Turn Off the Dark Oh
Starting point is 00:45:34 got to use that? well it wasn't it wasn't made into a movie it was barely made into a successful show it was yeah it was kind of a notorious flop and one guy died I don't think anybody died but people got hurt Spider-Men got hurt
Starting point is 00:45:51 Spider-Man's not it's not a safe job what was your answer again I think I said dark times I just wanted it embarrass you further it's not on the list dark times i'm sad to say yeah but um congratulations ryan you are a winner today you did it that's amazing uh it means you're going to do your plugs first what would you like to promote for this is so unexpected oh my god i know you really
Starting point is 00:46:34 didn't have a chance to prepare a speech I didn't know it's the same I'm just stutter here this is wild I'm gonna rub this in my family I watch watch his fangouli every week all these movies I'm like yep that's one of Vincent Bryce key okay so
Starting point is 00:46:47 I wish I had like a crown or something to give you because I feel like you'd wear it around for the rest of the festival yes I would indeed the current Douglo's movies champion we can make something I'll make him a shirt that'll be good again I'll someday produce a shirt that if anyone eventually sees it, maybe you could
Starting point is 00:47:06 order it, I don't know where it will show up, when it will be, or whatever, but someday that will exist. As a couple, your plugs are amazing. It's all like, hey, just continue to exist and maybe you'll see, maybe you'll run into something that we're doing. I gotta say TNA, October 12th,

Starting point is 00:47:42 So before I talk to my other guests And say my Farewells and goodbyes Everyone's dying to know What the hell was on that list That these guys didn't name And so I'm going to I'm going to lay it out for you
Starting point is 00:47:59 I wrote it down just because I thought it might come up but at number 12 was Thor, colon, the dark world. But that wasn't worth any points. I just thought it was interesting that it came in at number 12. Number 10, another sequel situation, Terminator, Dark Fate. Yeah, great subtitle on that Terminator movie. Then number nine, dark skies. yeah that's gonna be the reaction to every one of these oh all right yes of course dark skies
Starting point is 00:48:42 then we had zero dark 30 dark horse number six the dark tower oh dark tower yeah another Stephen King thing that didn't work out and then uh number five I was kind of surprised this one didn't come out didn't come up dark shadows Oh. This is building nicely because I think you're all going to enjoy number two. Number four, Dark City. Classic, like, this crowd loves Dark City. Roger Ebert was a big fan of Dark City.
Starting point is 00:49:30 Alex Proyos, I don't know. to pronounce his name to this day but he directed it and uh he's cool um number three i got this i this i had to like double check when what's when who said dark matters was it carl said dark matters yeah dark matters dark matters maybe you're thinking of dark waters Probably not Nobody thinks of dark waters Nobody sitting around scratching their beard
Starting point is 00:50:03 Dark waters And number two I tried so hard I repeated dark night As often as I could Because number two is The Dark Night Rises It was right there
Starting point is 00:50:19 for everybody But congratulations once again to Ryan. And let's talk to one more plug from our other guests. Carl Frye, what would you like to promote? Oh. You know, last time we promoted a movie that no one has seen, so I'll do that again, a different one.
Starting point is 00:50:45 Go on YouTube and look for a rain curtain. It's like a 47-minute short film out of Houston. You'll be one of a few people in the world who have ever seen it, and it'll blow your mind incomprehensibly. It's like, you know, made 16 years ago by a group of very strange people for no money. What's it called again? Rain Curtin.
Starting point is 00:51:03 Wow, that's so nice of you to plug somebody else's movie in your plug spot. Yeah. Well, and also, if you see that movie, you'll be also the only people in the world who can watch rats and see those characters cameos and know that it's the extended universe of this random YouTube movie.

Yay. great job to all three you guys i end every episode of the show with a uh i say a last line uh from a movie and uh you know i usually you know do some research and figure out a good one but i didn't come up with one for today because of the you know just the fast-paced nature of being at a film fest uh do any of you have a favorite last line from a movie movie? Chris?
Starting point is 00:52:53 The only one I can think of is dumb and dumber. What do they say at the end of dumb and dumber? Two lucky guys are going to spend the next couple of months. What is it? Like, I don't know. I forget it. I've been watching dark. Too lucky guys are going to...
Starting point is 00:53:07 You remember, how's nobody know what I'm talking about? The Swedish bikini team needs someone to oil them up.
